V. Ragsdale, 22-year-old cit!- | cen police officer, who 1. st Sunday | shot and killed A. B. Smith, of 74 Corput street, was Thursday bound ever to the state courts for murder by Recorder George E. Johnson, after a three-hour hearing, which was featured by a declaration by Prosecuting Attorney Jesse Wood that, unless Ragsdale is made an example of recklessness, the civilian ‘police force is licensed to’ shoot people indiscriminately and_ will prove a public menace. Ragsdale was a member of the civilian police force sworn in re- cently to check speeding, traffic violations and crime in the city. He shot Smith while attempting to ar- resthim for alleged drunkenness. In building its case against the young officer, the prosecution Stressed the -testimony of tha 14- } year-old son of the dead man, who déclared that his father had de- manded a search warrant of Rags- dale and an atcompanying regular officer, when they began their search-for whisky. After this de- ‘ ‘mand had been made, the boy stated, - Wood. his fatfer was slain. Trial Calm One. Ragsdale kept his nervous anx- ety well restrained during the trial, even undera scathing denunciation by Prosecuting Attorney Jesse He was taken to the Fulton Tower following expressions of as- _Surance and sympathy by his fam- ily and friends. Peaturing the trial was the probe 2f the motive of Ragsdale and Reg- ular Officer B. R. Hutcheson in attempting to arrest Smith when they suspected that he ws ath pos- , ession of a quantity of Nqunr and a att they* had observed his alleged disorderly actions. The points was stressed by Prosecutor Wood in sum- ming up, that the two officers had been aware of both: facts for two hours er“more before deciding to ar- rest Smith. He expressed doubt as to whether the two officers. wanced to arrest Smith as much as they wanted to apprise themselves of the conditions pertaining to Smith's Supposed possession of liquor. Hutcheson Croses-Examined. Officer Hutcheson, under cross- examination, admitted that he be- lieved he would have been justified to arrest Smith an hour and a half before he actually started to do sh, and that hé went to his home not far away, to ¢hange his officer's coat and hat in order to investigate without causing excitement. Presecutor Wood als¢ stressed the fact that neither Hutcheson nor Ragsdale tried to obtatn a seurch Warrant for the purpose of enterinz: and searching Smith's home, though they had ample time. Mr. took occasion at this point to roundly denounce ‘citizen-officers as being unfit to exercise the functions of police officers. “They should never have been commissioned,” he-declared. “If you let this young man go without bind- ing him over to the grand jury you will virtually license him to shoot any man that does not hold up his hands when approached by him for whatever cause, It means that no home in Atlanta will be safe. If an officer ts guilty of creating a dis- turbance when his duty is to matn- tain law and-.order, and if as a re- sult of it he kills aoman, he is more reprehensible than any other pef* son.” Mild Sensation. A mild sensation was given the trial when the prosecution sintro- duced J. S. Jenkins, city fireman, Who testified that he was told bv (Continued on Page 11, Column 4.) Wood. TO GIVE THEIR VIEWS Senator Hitchcock Wants to Use $60,000,000 Prof- its of Reserve System for Farm Relief—Congress of Governors Urges Re- lief Measures. - Washington, December 2.—The plight of farmers due to falling prices was taken today to con- gress. Agricultural committees senate and house in joint session began hearings on conditions brought about by falling prices pre- liminary to devising relief measures. They decided to ask Secretary Hous- ton and Governor Harding, of the federal reserve board, to come “be- fore them tomorrow after Eugene Meyer, Jr.. former head of the war finance corporation, had -declared that rehabilitation of that body would go a long step towards fur- of the ‘nishing the desired relief by financ- ing exports of surplus crops, Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, told the conference he planned to in- troduce measures making available the profits of the federal reserve bankS& amounting to about $60,000,- 000, for loans to agricultural in- terests. : The money which Senator Hitch- cock would have advanced to the tarmers is’ the government’s share in profits of the federal reserve banks payable next month and which, under the law, would be used to increase gold reserves o! amortize Liberty bonds. How Loans Would Be Made. Loans would be made through the federal land banks or chattel mort- gages or warehouse receipts whith agricultural products or Jive stock as security. Loans on_- grain would be limited to six months and those on live stodk to one year. “This would be only a drop in the bucket toward meeting the enor> tious needs of agriculturists,” said Senator Hitchcock, “but it would have a goo@ effect beyond the.ac- tual amount of-money made avail- able.” ; Governor Harding, with whom the Nebraska senator conferred, issued a statement saying that neither he nor the board had taken any stand the propbdsition. He declared h had, eriticised Senator Hitch- cock’s plan, Dut that the matter was one not within the proyince of the board as it concerns the use of funds which the law required should be paid into the treasury.. ‘Legislation extending a billion- dollar credit to Germany’ was ada- vocated before the jolut committee by J. J. Brauer, of New York, who claimed to represent the German government, while Senator Smoot, of Utah, announced he would pro- pose an embargo on imports of wool for relief of American woo) growers in a bill he will offer Mon- day. c Representative Campbell, of K&an- | sas, suggested that profits of the grain corporation, about $100,000,- 000, be made available for loang to farmers. 7 i _ Meyer~Urges Relief. Mr. Meyer told the joigt comimit- tee that the act creating the war finance corporation was passed four months after the armistice and in- tended by congress to bridge over the situation by. financing exports until normal economic conditions were restored. He said conditions now were those which congres@ had fn mind in enacting the mdé@asure, and that restoration of the corpora- ) 2. (Continued on Page 6, Colamn _. $picuous manner.

C., December Herbert Futrell, former constable of Wayne county, was shot when 2 mob stormed ‘the Wayne county court house here tonight in an unsucessful attempt to obtain five negfoes held there for the murder of a white man. Fttrell was said to have been one of the leaders of the mob and he was removed in an automobile immediately after he was wounded. Whether he was killed could not be learned. The attack on- the courthouse was made under cover of a fusillade of shots ahd after all.the windows on one side of the building had been shot out. It was during this firing that Futrell fell, apparently struck by a bullet fired by one of the at- tackers. : \ Shot by Member of Mob. Colonel John D. Langston, in charge of the administration of the selective service law in North Caro- lina during the war and later as- sistant to Provost Marshal Genera] Crowder in Washington, was one of a dozen citizens stationed at the courthouse to guard the prisoners. Colonel Langston declared the gar- rison did not return the fire of the attacking force and that Futrell was wounded by one of the men in the mob. : “Thirty of about fifty men which Futrell led against the west door of the courthouse,” said Colonel Langston, “‘were subjected to a sort of cross fire from snipers, situated at various *angles. I was outside the courthouse at the zime and saw Futrell on the porch, turning about in various directions and sheuting to the men about him. A party of snipers off to the side, near me, opened fire about the time Futrell fell He was removed in an auto- mobile, wbile the party with him dispersed.” At the time of the assault on the jail, most of the guards were on the third floor of the courthouse | where they hau the negroes, A small the gecend | gu had been placed.gn the tl , according to Colonel Langston, but theSe meh did het fire. door on the first floor, it appeurs, ‘Was smashed oOpeh, DUT when ku- trell fteli, no altempt Wwas:made to enter, Machine Gun Company. . Twenty-five men at midnight were guarding the prisoners and _ these were to be reinforced after the ar- rivil of a machine gun company of state troops trom Durham, The soidiers were expected to board a special train at Durham shortly aft- er midnight, “It. is utterly impossible for the mob to get the prisoners unless the building is dynamited,”’ said Colonel Langston. ‘‘We can hold off a mob of two thousand, if necessary. Whil@e members of the, garrison did not anticipate further trouble, it was rumored on the streets that another attack would be made on the courthouse before morning. Threats were made that the Mght- ing system of the town would be put out of commission and, that tele- phone communication with the jail would be cut off, it was reported. BRANDY CHERRIES AND MINCE’MEAT BANNED BY “DRYS” Houston, Texas, December 2.— In. what was said to Be the open- ing gun of a nation-wide campaign federal. prohibition agents here to- day seized virtually’ all of Hous- ton’s visible supply of Christmas brandied cherries and/mince meat, put up in glass jars prior to prohibition. The gents assert that the fruit contained more than one-half of one per cent alcohol. PROTEST FILED WITH LOCAL BODY ON RATE ACTION Knoxville, Tenn., December 2.— The Knoxville traffic bureau has filed a protest with the southern freight rate commission of Atlanta against the proposal to cai.cel all less than carload commodity rates on naval stores on the ground that it would mean an advance of 160 to 200 per cent. The | in conference today agreed to send a note to the Greek government de- claring that restoration of Constan- tine to the throne of Greece wonid be regarded as ratification by that country of Constantine’s hostile acts, —Tand would create a new and unfav- crable situation in the relations be- tween Greece and the allies. The text of the note follows “The British, French and It&lian governments have constantly in the past given proof of their good will towards the Greek people and have favored their attainment of their secular aspirations. They, therefore, have been all the more painfully surprised by the events which have just occurred in Greece. They have no wish to interfere in the interna] affairs of Greece, but feel bound to declare publicly that restoration of the throne of Greece to a king whose disloyal.attitude and conduct towards the allies during the war caused them great embarrassment and loss could only be regarded by them as ratification by Greece of his hostile acts. This step would cre- ate ew and unfavorable situation in the relations between Greece and the allies, and in that case the three governments reserve to themselves complete liberty in dealing with the situation thus created.” Probe Discloses Rival Factions In Gaming World “Home Talent” and For- eign Element Constantly at Odds—Powers Faces Another Indictment. | Mrs. Abe Powers wife of the man convicted in connection with theeal- lerped wire tapping swindle, will be rought befyre the Fulton ft. Aaa | grand jury today in an investiga- tion, which, it is belleved, will be directed to connecting both her and her husband with certain men, under indictment, who have disap- peared from Atlanta and whose dis ‘&ppearance has brought to light the fact that for months there had been a factional feud between At- lanta members of the sportive fra- sagas Tove imported products said to haveo perated a highly organ- ized gaming system to defraud the unwary. With the notification that Mrs. Powers would be brought .before the inquisitorial body, camethe notice that her husband would be brought to trial on a second charge of lar- ceny after trust relating to the fleecing of N. L. Davis, of Terre Haute, Ind., of more than $5,000. brought against Mrs. Powers Thursday afternoon and she was immediately transferred from the woman's ward at the city jail tq the Tower, where her husband is also incarcerated. Throughout the day arrests «on- tinued of Atlanta men indicted as vagrants in the clean-up campaten of the solicitor general and the police department. Chief of Detec- tives Lamar Poole announced Thursday that he believes all men indicted are now under arrest ex- cept. those who had a premonition of what was coming and decided to seek pastures néw and of more salubrious climate for their par- ticular calling. All. Home Products. “All the men we have arrested,” ysaid Chief Poole, “are home prod- ucts, and not one of them is in any way implicated in the wire tapping swindle.

DEFENDS REDISCOUNT RATES Reserve Board Governor in Controversy With ‘Senator Owen—Senator Alleges Government Profiteering. peal by Senator Owen; democrat of rediscount rates, brought a Sponse tonight from W. P..G. Hard- ing, the board’s governor, which declared that the organization was “reluctant to discuss proposed changes in discount rates” because such discussion would “have an un- settling effect and give those best in position to form an opinion as to the probable action of the board an advantage over those not thus situated.” Senator Owen’s letter said that reserve bank earnings from present discount rates were running at. 150 per cent per annum, “putting, the government in the position of profiteering,” and in.~ some cases “absolutel» stopping legitimate dis- tribution.” P Governor Harding countered with the- statement that the senator was A blanket charge of suspicion was i “ignoring, the economic forces gov- erning the movement in prices which for months past have been in evidence all over the world.” “The board believes the unfavor- subject of so much complaint were inevitable,” Governor Harding add- ed, “and could not in any event have been long deferred. It con- fidently asserts that but for the precautionary measures taken sev- eral months ago, condition would be far worse than they are, with the prospects of stabilization and revival much more remote.” To the profiteering charge, Gov- ernor Harding retorted that the profit of reserve banks, after pay- ing the government franchise tax, -“would be not 150 per cent or more, but barely 7 per cent on their lia- bility. to stockholders.” Senator Owen -characterized the board’s policy. as “indiscriminate deflation, largely due in my opin- ion, to the lack of vision of ghe big New York Aity banks.” Governor Harding replied that the board est newspaper.” Replies te Queries. ; Following is the fourch instalt!- ment of questions and answers: M.—Wéill I.ever get married | (Continued ‘on Page 16, Colume 1.) | ' “hopes that even though your views __These-arrests and the flight of; and those of the brard may not coincide in all respects, you may later on reach the conciusion that in the light of subsequent events, the bogrd’s policies are gound.” . —— ( a a DO YOUR | Only 18 More Days me gar pane tg..the federal. reserve | peard for eet lowering of its re- | Washingtor, December 2.—An ap- | Unanimity Was Not Re- able conditions which are now the +but all thinking of a Pevision that 7 tude of the United States under the |} declare itself incompetent to con- -amendments to -@ moment of great suspense, when Amendments Barred To League Covenant By Vote of Assembly Argentine Delegate Cast Dissenting Vote, But President Hyams Ruled quired.

The eventual proposal to eliminate Article 10 is some- what compromised by the general understanding that consideration of all proposed changes should be postponed @ntil studied. by a spe- cial committee. This understand- ing, however, came largely from the anxiety of the delegates not to precipitate revision until the atti- new government is known. Leon Bourgeois, of the French delegation, is perturbed lest the investigations of the committee should lead it to consider altera- tions involving a revision of the treaty of Versailles, and he de- manded today that it be under- stood that. the committee should sider any amendment to the cove- nant that involved modification af the treaty. The close of the debate brought Senor Pueyrredon, of Argentina, who failed to take part in the de- bate, voted alone against the reso- lution rejecting consideration of the covenant at this session.

WEST, United News Staff Correspondent, London, December 2.—The Count- ess of MarKlevicz, member of the Sinn- Fein parliament and one of the most mysterious operatives of Sinn Fein's invisible army, is on trial before a court-martial in Dub- lin, charged with conspiring to murder members of the crown forces and with recruiting soldiers for the Sinn Fein army. The count- ess was a reluctant witness on some matters, although she bright- ened the hearing by ‘her assistance to her counsel as he stumbled over the pranunciation of Irish names. The government sought to show that an officer who arrested her on one of the occasions when she was taken in, was murdered for his ac- tion. Numerous women friends of the countess Were in court, but all had to submit te being searched (fdr weapons before being admitted. A big roundup went on in Dub- lin Thursday, conducted by asol- diers and police with instructions to bring in all members of the Sinn Fein parliament who were still at largé. The staff of the of- ficial secret bulletin of Sinn Fein were arrested. In Glasgow three Irishmen and | three women were arrested in their homes, and a search of the prem- ises yielded a quantity of gelignite, gun cotton, detonators, hand gre- nades, revolvers and ammunition.

Mr. Williams shows that 55,863,- 745 gallons of distilled liquors were held in bonded warehouses June 30, a reduction of 16.494.405 gallons during the vear. The report shows that 99,615.792 taxable eallons of ¢ stilled liquor were nroduced dur- from bonded warehouses were revorted at 28.220.909 gallons. The highest marks shown for pro- duction and withdrawals were in 1916. when production reached 249,- 123,921 wzallons and withdraafs 160.- 740,210 gallons. The largest amount of liquors ever held in storage was in 1914—~with a total] of 282,056.460 gallons.

YHE CONSTITUTION, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1920. : ; PAGE FIVE SEATING ~ SEHTTOWISOK ~-BY THE LEAGUE “For His Acceptance of .. Invitation to Act as Me- ..diator Between Turks ~ and Armenians. - Geneva, December 3.— {By the As- sociated Press.)—Thne Dispatch of a Solemn message of Sratitude to Pres- Kient Wilson for the way he re- sponded to the appeal of the coun- cil of the league-of nations to act #s mediator between the Armenians and the Turkish nationalists, was Proposed to the assembly of the league by Paul Hymans, its presi- dent, shortly after today’s session of the assembly began. After the opening ceremonies, Mr. Hymans announced Mr. Wilson’s of- fer to mediate in Armenia, and read the council's reply. That body in- formed Mr Wilson that it is asking the Brazilian and Spanish govern- ments, which yesterday also offefed their services as mediators, td com- municate direct with Washington re- Zarding the means of action. The reading of Mr. Wilson’s mes- sage drew hearty applause from the Sparsely filled house. A large pro- portion of the delegates are suffer- ing from colds and were not present at the beginning of today’s session. M. Hymans also proposed that messages of gratitude be sent to Brazil and Spain. Lord Robert Cecil, representative of the Union of South Africa, rose and said thanks were also due the french delegation, particularly Rene Viviani,. whose eloquence, he de- clared, had inspired “this merrito- rious effort to save Armenia.” Text of Reply to Wilson. The text of the reply made by the ¢ouncil to President Wilson's ac- ceptance of the role of mediator in the Armenian question, which was dispatched to Washington this morn- ing,. signed by President Hymans, of the assembly, is as follows: “In the name of the council of the league of nations I tharik you for your telegram of December 1 in which you agree to act as mediator between the Armenians and the Tur- kish nationalists and add that you Will nominate a representative for this purpose. "The council is deeply rejoiced at and grateful for your decision. The council asked me to inform you that the Spanish government de- clares itself ready to participate in any action of a moral and diplomatic character in support of Armenia aliu that t.e Brazilian government anh- nounecs that it is ready to take part alone or with other powers in put- ling am end to the present situation in Armenia. The council is, there- Yure, requesting these two govern- ments to communicate directly with yuu as to how co-operation in this work can best be arranged.

Sir Lric Drummond, secretary general of the league of nations, has sent the following. message to President Wilson . expressing the vratitude of the assembly at his acceptance of Armenia arbitration: “The president read to the full assembly this morning your tqe- cram, and the reply sent by the council to it. The assembly wel- comes your acceptatlice of the offer with enthusiasm ald asks me to to you its ulidlimous as- the complete moru,. support of every member of the league in the great mission you have undertaken, and 1 beg confi- dently to deciare that the opinion, not only of the people of the Untted states, but of the whole civilized world is with you im your endeavo! to secure that the tragedy of Ar- mmenia shall finally cease.

Denvuncing the service now being ‘Siven by the Atlanta Gas Light com- pany, and characierizing as out- rageous tp” request of the company for an adaitidnal rate increase, Dr. L. N. Huff, well-known Atlantan and a member of the committee ap- pointed by the Highland avenue mass meeting held in connection with gas service conditions, Thurs- day night announced that he has at his own expense retained counse!] to appear before the railroad com- \mission to fight the petition when yit is considered. Dr. Huff added that Owen J6nn- son, of the law firm of Johnson and Scott, will act as his attorney, and said that-he will co-operate with Other attorneys representing pa- trons. He stated that his attorney will move that the railroad com- mission dismiss he gas rate petition Without a hearing. His statement in part was as fol- lows: Almost before the ink is dry on a recent order by the railroad commission authorizing an increase of the gas rate ‘from $1.15 to $1.45, and at a time when thousands of housewives all over Atlanta are fretting themselves sick with cooking ranges rendered practically useless by sorry gas or low pres- sure, or both, the gas company goes back to the railroad commission with another pe- tition for increased rates, this time asking to be allowed to charge $2.15. It is the most brazen piece of effrontery in the career of «a public utility manage- ment who have lately given frequent evi- This secormd attemout within threo m mifhs Seonvenience of a near gas famine while ! dences of their contempt for public opinion | | and public rights. tu raid the public purse for the beuefit of owners of watered stock deserves to be stopped by the railroad commission in its neeption. The petition ought to be, and doubtless will be. dismissed without a hear- ing. A recent similar petition brought to the commission by the electric and street rail- way company of Augusta, Ga.. was dis- missed by thé commission without a hearinz because the company’s electric rates and car fares had been stbstantially increased only three months fore. In the gas company’s case only one ful) month (October) has passed since the in- crease authorized a short time ago by the railroad commission was put into effect. uf course, .a month's irial is hot enough to | demonstrate whether the present rate is /| profitable or unprofitable. There is much | less justification for hearing this petition | than there was for hearing the Augusta pe- | tition. The wublic has paid for practically all the property owned by the gas company, and | unless things are changed the public will pay for all enlargements in the future. More than that, the public not only must pay for these enlargements, but pay in | advance; and must endure the wretched in- waiting for the machinery to be built and installed. Thus the mass meétings of indignant pa- trans of the gas company have been official- ly ignored. The management of the com- pany have detdiled spotters to go to the meetings, but bave sent no speakers. They have not been represented by responsibic spokesmen, but by sleuths and Peeping Tons. Their reply to these meetings is like a slap in the fate. Instead of telling the people what tthey are doing, if anything, to render adequate service, and why _ these steps were so long delayed, they tell the railroad commission that it becomes again their painful duty to run their fingers a little deeper into the public purse.

Another motive of the committee, ' Mr. Balfour explained, was the con- ; viction | j i next that one .vear’s experience in the working of the covenant was insufficient to show just what amendments should be made and the committee deemed it advisable to wait. He said a commission which the committee recommended to study proposed amendments could report to the council of the league, which in turn would repert to the meeting of the assembly at Geneva.

Germany’s protest against accep- tance .by the league’ of what the Berlin government deemed falsi- returns from the _ plebiscites ‘held in the Eupen and Malmedy @!s- ricts along the Belgian frontier, /has been rejected by the council. ; in its reply to the erman gov- ‘ernment the council sys it finds , no a dify its previous reason to the result of the decision to accep plebiscite. The subcommittee considering applications of smailer states for -,embership in the league has de- cided to report favorably upon the 'admission of Costa Rica, but un- favorably on Azerbaijan and Litch- tenstein. This body will recom- mend to the parent committee that a favorable report be made upon the proposition advanced by Presi- dent Motta, of Switzerland. which would provide that states not hav- ing sufficient importance to be- come full members of the league would have a specia) status. It has een suggested i this connection that they might be giv- en seats in the assembly for pur- poses of consultation, but without the right\to vote.

The report further urged the fed- eral reserve board to advise all banks to adopt a liberal policy’ of renewals on farmers’ indebtedness. Text of Report. The action was taken on the recommendation of a committee of five governors appointed yesterday, who presented the following report: “The financial situation in the country is cause for the Sravest concern, but not for de- spair. All lines of business are realizing heavy losses, but the swift decline df prices of farm commodi- ties too far below the cost of pro- duction threatens a national disas- ter. The situation demands in- finite patience and forbearance and Supreme wisdom and courage. Noth- ing but evil can result from an- gwer or fear. “We believe that of the situation can be relieved several. ways: “1I1—Let every individual do all he can to help and encourage his some certain i fering, is only day when all including che n st face the tenseness in the propaganda and stabilizing “Opposition to the “revamping” of war-time government .agencies for in a statement by Senator Edge, of classes equally, but added that con- ye “The only durable and infallible | | neighbor.

Probable proseeution of Miss Mar. garet Yates, who drove the car which \-ednesday ran down and se- riously injured Olin C. Fuller, clerk of the United States district court _ for years and one of the city’s best- known citizens, WAS indicated Thursday in the atatement of Clar- ence Bell, local attorney, who has been employed by Mr} Fuller's fam- ily. Mr. Bell said that while the fam- ily ef Mr. Fuller felt no persona! anim®sity-toward Miss Yates, inves- tigation had pointed to the fact thar the accident was due to criminal egiect, despite the fact that wit- . ‘nesses of the occurrence had stated their belief that it was unavoidable. Meanwhile. Mr. Fuller, who was carried to St. Jogeph’s infirmary, is reported by his physicians to be much better and, barring complica- tions. is expected to recover with- out serious trouble. Mr. Fuller suf- fered a fractured skull in the aecci- dent. which oceurred in front of the Winecoff hotel. Unavoidable Is Claim. Miss Yates,-who is being detained at police station under heavy bond, was obviously nervous throucheut Thursday, but stoutly maintains that the accident was entirely unavotd- able. Mr. Bell, attorney for the family, stated Thursdav night that the authoritiés will be asked to de- tain Miss Yates until a thorough in- vestigation of the accident Wednes- dav can be made, either to satisfv the family of Mr. Fuller that the young lady is innocent, or to await prosecution If the situation seems to demand it. At present, after investi- gation, the family of the injured is inclined to prosecution, said Mr. Bell. . Fuller’s long connection with the United States .court has made hia many friends in Atlanta espe- cially among the attorneys of the ¢ity. who know him and respect him ‘as probably the best-posted man in the entire city On federal practice.

The writer is in receipt of the following letter: “Dear Sir: Decatur High school’s girls’ team which came so near winning the prep league champion- ship last season was hard hit by rraduation. However, of the first string players, Mary Brown, ¢ap- tain and fdérward, and Helen Lock- -hart, center, are back. and Virginia Watts, Miriam Spruell and Jennie Lind DeVoe, of the second string quintet will bid for the first place honors this year. “Games are being’ arranged with yriffin, LaGrange, Athens and Bu- ford, besides the usual prep league games. The boys also expect to have a good team this year. “The Decatur High School Ath- letic association is putting on a drive to sell two hundred season tickets at five dollars each to fur- nish the building of an indoor court, tthe lack of which has handicapped Decatur teams. The drive is now in full swing and cvery sport-loving Decatur citizen is expected to pur- chase one or more tickets.

Announcement has been made or the nine men from whom will be picked the four to represent Em- ory in the coming f¢ross-country meet between all Southern Metho- dist colleges, to take place Decem- ber t1 at Emory. They are Captain Stokes, Enloe, Jones Colwell, Har- per, RochéHe, Joe Harvard, Wil- kinson and Lewis. From these men the team of four will be se- lected this week, the selection to be made from the immediate re- sults of each man's work. Coach Smathers carries his men through a hard practice every aft. ernoon, now, as the. aevent draws nearer. The distance betweenyEm- ory and Decatur is covered once a day in order that the men may beep in good shape. The course lies tween the campus of the univer- sity, around the DeKalb county courthouse and back, ™ distance of somewhat over four miles. At the present time it is hard to say just who will be selected for the four places, because there are many probabilities, and the differ- ent members of the team are so nearly equal in their athletic abil- ities, that a guess would be likely to go wrong. One place is-¢sure, that of Stokes, Who continues to show up well, wf nerally leading the team on its ho, sd from Deca. tur evegy evening. On the afternooh in which. the event is to take place the quartet will be picked; so that until’ that .time there will be good cause for worry and hard work on the part , of every man now on the nine, GEORGIA TWIRLER LATEST ADDITION TO LOCAL STAFF Sammy Mayer, Cracker captain, a winner.

Fine ‘Teams on Court. Coach Tolbert will have a number of assistants as they expect to have at least five teams With a coach for each. Tech High is in both the At- lanta Prep league and the G.I. A. A., which gives the Junior Smithles a full schedule of around 21 games. Boys’ High also called the first practice Wednesday and Coach O. K. David found that he faced a tough proposition. He lost all: five of his 1919 team and he will be with- out tie services this year of John Staton, Ed McGarrity, Baby Roane, Jerry Albright and Kenneth Math- eson, some of the best players the school has ever turned out. His second string men for the most part have returned to the fold and around these men he will turn out the 1920 quintet. A large num- ber of candidates reported for the first day’s practice and judging from the material that responded, a good team should be developed. Beacham and Stevens are the only two scrubs that Were on the last year’s squad that have returned but there are quite a few that were on the squad. Miers and Carter Back. The title winning team of 1919 Was also hit hard by. graduation and surbage announées that only two members of the team are back. However, he is very enthusiastic over the prospects for the coming year. He enjoyed a very success- ful year in football, with a tie with Tech High fog the title, and he ex- to, step around. Mercer Murray, the tipper-off last season, has gone to .Georgia and King looms up as *the possible center for this year’s five. Other candidates that have showed up well thus Yar are Anderson, Whipple and Reynolds, all subs of last year’s quintet: Robinson, for- merly of Central High and a mem- ber of the foagtball team this year, and Blackwood, another grid star. The basketeers at the University High has started work for the sea- son and they expect to place a team on the field that vwaill more than equal the team that represented the school last season. It was thought for a time that Fred Hager. Cracker catcher, and the coach: of the first fo@tball team that has ever been turned out by the school, would be in charge of the cage team. How- ever he will not be back for he will’ leave shortly for his home in Washington to await the opening of the baseball season. ) L. Boone Was the coach of the team in 1919 and ne will again have charge of the destiny of the Four- teenth Street school’s team. “Red” Laird, captain, and Teo Yeager are the only vets to answer the call of Coach Boone. The most promising of the many aspirants for places on the team are Minhinett, Boswell. Peters, Robinstein, Freeman, Palmer, former center onthe Marist quintet; McPhail and» Garlington. The Fulton high boys have also started work and they have already played a number of games. They have played several: out-of-town games and in each case they have returned the winners. Not mue¢h is known about the team but with the jump they have on the other schools, they should cause them a little worry.

At 4:30 o’clock this.afternoon ten Tech stalwarts leave for Birmtng- ham. The big annual road race of the Slagtown is due for tomorrow afternoon and it is for the purpose of copping this race that the Tech men are going westward today. This race is one of the feature events of the winter season of sports'and is held each year under the direction of the . Birmingham Athletic club, usually the firsg Sat- urday in* December. Team or ‘club! entries are limited to six men and a trophy asvarded to the teams that make the best showings as well as the medal awards to the men who place one, .two, three. The race’ is run over the city street of hard surface paving and it’ piaced the Tech. men at a disad- vantage from the outset, for their work had been on the cinder track or over the historic old cross-coun- try route from Grant field to the waterworks and back. This year to give his men a better chance in the final race Coach Alexander decided to have his preliminaxy race frun over the Atlanta streets instead of the waterworks course. A field of 24 men started and the first 12 to finish were kept at work all during the past two weeks. Pinkney Daves, of last year’s track team, won the prelim, and cloSe on his heeis came another track letter man, Klass. Unfortunately for the road téam, J. M. MeCleskey, captain of the 1921 track team and champion comege miler of the south, was injured in an automobile accident three or four weeks ayo. A badly bruised foot was the result of it and Mac has been unable to do any track work since. Mac will go along with the team today, however, for his knowledge of running and Conditioning will stand the best of them in_= good stead. The team will be in. charge of George Griffin, who is serving in the capacity as assistant coach. As a coach George is a great success, as can be attested by the fine show- ing his .Tech freshman team made this season in football. He has served his four years as a membé@r of the varsity track team and Will be ineligible to bear the colors of the White an@ Gold any more in in- tercollegiate meets. Eight men are going along to make up the team proper, the list including P. G. Daves, Klass, Gray- don, McDonald, Frve, Gordon, Mil- nér and¢Cotton.

SCOTT NAMED PRESIDENT | OF REALTY BOARD | Henry B. Scott was elected’ pres- id nt of the Atlanta Real Estate ‘board at a meeting held Thursday at the Piedmont hotel, and Ward Wight was chosen vice-president. Mr. Scott, who is one of Atlanta’s most popular and active realty men. succeeds Benamin D. Watkins as head of the organization and Mr. Wight succeeds Frank Adair as vice- president. The confirmation of these two names by the gathering was immediate after their presenta- tion by a nominating committee composed of Charles H. Black, R. R. Itis, George Campbell, Ben Padgett, J. W. Hill and Mr. Watkins. Mr. Watkins was asked to ac- cept the presidency of the body for another year but declined on - count of pressure of business, wh he says will prevent him from giv- ing the attention to the position which it merits. ‘ Plans were also discussed Thurs- dav relative to the meeting here in January of the executive committee of the National®Asgociation of Feeal [state Boards. —E—— Parent-Teacher Meet.

Because the dignity of the office demands more recognition than that given by the present salary, it was recommended by the salaries com- mittee of the city council Thurs- day afternoon that the mayor's an- nual pay »e raised to $6.000 from the present $4.000. : This action came at the regular December meeting to. fix the sal- aries of members of the municipal government forethe ensuing year, and the:.recommendation: was the outgrowth of a resolution offered council by Councilman A! H. Martin i. September and referred to the salaries committee. Approval the increase was unanimous. It was also recommended by the co-nmittee that the salary of Walk- er Lee, secrg@ary to the mayor, be raised to $2,500 per year from the present $2,000. This action also met the unanimous approval of high tribute to the efficiency of Mr. Lee as an executive secretary. be- Councilman Martin appeared fore the committee and added his saying that Mr. Lee had never re- quested a raise but that his work had been strenuous, often carrying him late into the night for its com- n! ‘ion. Mr. Lee was me.utioned as one of the city’s most valuable and efficient employes and there was no dissension to the raise. » Other requests for increased ésal- aries were adversed by the commit- tee, who in their discussion ex- pressed the sense that there were several departments in which raises would be just, but that the financial stringencies in whick the city finds itself precludes the possibility of further increases. Especially was this opinion ex- pressed. with regard to the police and fire departments, ‘members >of which were said by the committee to be worth far more to the city than their salaries indicated. expression was that these depart- ments should be among the first to receive increased pay when the city finances would stand it.

All possible efforts, he declared, should be made to relieve citizens and industries@f,burdens made par- ticularly heavy during the last few years by the expenses of the war. “We are still nursing our ‘infant industries’ here,” he said, “nor do we tax our vast mineral products, the value of which alone amounts to well on to two billions of dollars a year.” Equal moderation on the part of the federal government, Governor Sproul said, was a more difficult thing to discover. Forgetting the States. “There must be some germ in the Potomac,” he said, “which makes our national statesmen forget that the nation is made up of states; that those states have functions to perform affecting most intimately the life and welfare of the repub- lic and that the operation of those | in gen- erous quantities.” Governor Sproul said that the cost of everything necessary to carry on state functions had increased _ so enormousiy in the last few years that in all but a few states—with Pennsylvania no exception—deficits and overdrafts upon appropriations have had to be permitted to prevent an actual closing down of the work of caring for unfortunate and de- pendent wards of the state.’ comes and jand, he said, should b bjected to no additional levies, either by state or nation. The first of these, he said, were bearing as heavy a burden as they could well stand. Modern taxes upon the util- ization of natural resources, he de- clared, would not be so burdensome, particularly if states made provi- sion for making some return to lo- calities affected, in the way of re- construction and rehabilitation. The governor said he esteemed it a happy sign of the trend of the times that there was a strong ten- dency everywhere to impose taxes in proportion to the ability of the taxed to pay, rather than with re- spect to the supposed benefits de- rived from the government. This, he said, was indicated by the grow- ing popularity of various forms of graduated income taxation and the gradual getting away from poll eral property tax. Political Attitudes Reversed. The afternoon’s session was en- livened by expressions from two governors which reversed the ordin- ary political attitudes of the tra- ditional northern republican and southern democrat. Speaking on the subject of “de- centralization of government func- tions,” and stressing the desirability of decentralization, Governor Carey of Wyoming deplored what he called a growing neglect of “states rights.” The federal government through cer- tain activities was “retarding de- velopment,” he declared. Immediately Governor Harding took the floor with the suggestion that all other republicans “turn their faces to the wall, permitting our democratic friends to chuckle.” A few minutes later Governor Parker of Louisiana, making a plea for farmer laborers of the south, who he said, hag to compete with “19 cents a day syrup and vegetable oil manufacturers” of Oriental coun- tries, declared what was needed was “protective impert taxes.” Governor Goodrich of arose. “It would perhaps be in order for the democrats to turn their faces now,” he said. After the day’s session the gover- nors and governors-elect were driv- en 16 miles into the country for din- ner as the guests of Lewis S. Sadler, Pennsylvania state highway com- missioner. General Pershing w*%s also a guest at the dinner party. After a short executive session to- morrow the conference will adjourn, taking a special train at noon for Philadelphia, where they will be guests of the city for the day.

These factions, it is explained, consiste@® of the “home talent” as opposed to imported experts in the art of acquiring something for noth- ing.

It is pointed out that despite the general alarm that was given fol- lowing the wire-tapping expose, all of the “home talent’’ remained on their native heath while the better- organized foreign faction disappear- ed to a man with the single excep- tion of Abe Powers, R. B. Kelley, L. P. Coe and Lonnie Allen, who were takein when the solicitor gen- bling hous nue and 35 1-2 South Broad street. Kelley, Coe and Allen, along with Americus Lee, a negro, also rounded up in the raid, were arraigned in superior court Thursday, but on mo- tion of their counsel, Sam Hewlett and John McClelland, all the cases were continued to a day mext week to be fixed by the solicitor general. Mr. Boykin announced that he would endeavor to try the cases to- gether, while Mr. Hewlett, of the defense, was rot ready to say whether or not he would ask fora severance. To Continue Probe. At the*same time, Mr. Boykin an- nounced that the grand jury would continue its investigation of the gambling situation, and indicated that the surface had barely been scratched in this matter, | The determination to bring Pow- ers to trial Monday and td bring Mrs. Powers’ case before the grand jury Friday were made practically at the same time. lEarlier in the day counsel for Mrs. Powers had de- manded that the solicitor general order her release from custody. In case of refusal or a determi- nation to hold her simply as a wit- ness, her lawyers declared their intention of instituting habeas cor- »yus proceedings. The solicitor gen- eral informed them that he would give them a decision in the after- noon. About 3 o’clock he informed Mr. Hewlett that he had determined to bring Mrs. Powers’ case before the grand jury and order her trans- fer to the Tower. He did not indicate what line the grand jury inquiry would take. However, in the trial of her husband, testimoney was adduced through the clerk ate the hotel at which the Powers pair stopped that Mrs. Pow- ers handled the family finances, and speculative gossip was that it would be along this line that the investi- gation would be directed. Another Theory. A second theory was advanced that It was likely that the solicitor gen- eral would endeavor through Mrs. Powers’ case to adduce a connection between the men arrested in raids on the supposed ‘organized houses and Floyd Woodward, under indict- ment for gaming, who disappeared for parts unknown before warants could be served on him. Chief of Detectives Poole, how- ever, declared that though every effort had been made to trace any possible connection Woodward had with the operations in question. nothing had been found to ‘lead to the belief that he had ever ap- peared actively at either the West Peachtree, the Central avenue or-the Broad street place. When Powers is brought to trial on the Davis charge, his gattorneys indicated that their mint will be a complete denial of everything that Davis says, with the possibility that they will attempt to show a sinister motive on the part of Davis for having the case made. Testimony of Davis. In the trial of Powers for the al- leged swindling of Holley and La- mar, Davis testified that he had been swindled out of $5,500. by means of the wire-tapping scheme at the West Peachtree street place. He identified Powers as one of the at- taches of the place but testified that the actual swindling had hi ——s have been of a rather harmless na- | It may have been that some | It but in a purely | that the imported pruduci was high- | regularly | retained to rush to the rescue should | indulged had the same chance as eral’s force raided the supposed gam- | at 49 1-2 Central ave- | who is also missing. Powers asserts’/that he had never seen Davis until after his arrest, when Davis approached him in his cell and promised he would not ap- pear against him if Powers would see that he was paid $5,000. His cbunsel also says that it will ,be able to prove that when Powers was first brought before Davis at police headquarters the Indiana man had failed to identify him. Notable effects on Atlanta life |were noticeable Thursday as a re- ; sult of the clean-up campaign.

Ethe- ridge ._previously had testified that |he had seen Smith fall and had ex- amined the bullet wound. | On the actions of Smith when he 'was shot considerable .conflict of 'testimoney came to light. Gladys Wilson, niece of the dead man, tes- tified that her uncle was standing against the back porch of her home, which is adjacent to Smith’s home, when Ragsdale shot him. She stat- ed. that her uncle was trying to climb up the porch and made Ho threatening move toward Ragsdale immediately preceding the shooting. Etheridge, assistant manager of a local service station across the street from the Smith home, testi- fied that after Smith had broken lobse from Ragsdale and Hut¢he- 'son and gone back into his home and thence out the back way, he had his right hand in his hip pock- et and his left hand in his coat pocket in a manner indicating that he was about to draw a gun. Ali testimony showed that Smith was not armed. The bullet as | behalf given in: testimony entered the lef shoulder. Ragsdale’s Defense. Ragsdale in testifying in his own stated that he had been watching Smith for over an hour, that he had suspected him of being in possession of liquor and that he knew Smith was drunk and disor: derly. He borrowed a loaded _ re- volver from Etheridge at the service Station and proceeded to Smith's home for the purpose of inquiring into the matter of liquor. “Smith asked me what I] would do about it,” he continued. “Then I told him he was. ynder arrest. 1 found some whisky in the while Hutthesou held Smith, we went out with him. AS we got outside the house Smith tore loose and rushed back into the house. slamming the door. I fell over into the alley and was pretty badly hurt. [ could searcely vet up, so when Smith came around from tke back of the house and put his right hand into his hip pocket I realized that I was in poor shape to handle a prisoner, It looked as though he would draw a gun.” Ragsdale then ordered Smith to halt, he .testitied, but Smith made a threatening move toward him and it was then that Ragsdale fired. Hendrix on Stand. A. Hendrix, of 104 Jones ave- nue, testified that he was Passing by when he heard the shot. The first he saw of the incident, he said waS when Smith staggered out and fell on the sidewalk. He said that he cautioned Ragsdale to pocket his gun and he noticed a wound in smith’s jaw, which, at first, he thought was the bullet wound, La- ter he faund out, he declared, that the bullet entered the left shoulder. The wound on the jaw was caused in a scuffie between Ragsdale and Smith when the former first entered the home, according to the testimony of Ruben Smith, 14-year-old son of the deceased man. _ Ruben Smith, other’ than Smith, brother of the slain the only member of the immediate family to testify. The entire audi- ence, which nearly filled the court- room, was held in unusual silence by ‘the pathetic testimony of the boy. He was calm, though at times he had to th Mk to bring the facts clearly into mind. His testimony could not be broken by the attorney for the defendant, Frank Hooper The boy testified that his father had demanded to see a search war- fore he would consent to a search of his home by Ragsdale and Hutch- eson, and that when his father tore loose from Ragsdale when first ap- prehended inside the house, Rags- dale Struck his father across the chin with a small club. In handing. down his decision at the end of the trial, Judge Johnson stated that “it is unfortunate that this young man, Ragsdale, should be In such an affair, but there is sufficient testimony to show that the case ought to be looked into and further acted upon by the grand jury.” B.

The packing house figures show’ pork on the hoot brought 8 cents a pound in November, 1913. During the war the farmer was granted a minimum of 17 1-2 cents.

Explaining why the wholesale price has failed to fall as fast as the live stock quotations, an official of one of the packing houses said: ‘There are two features of the comparative price situation that should be borne in mind. One is the Price of by-products; the other the cost of labor. The average consumer naturally thinks of meat animals only as they affect his table. He sees. that the price of hogs has dropped and he thinks, of course, that meat should follow at once. “Only about 76 per cent of the live hog is meat. The other 24 per cent consists of waste and by-products, little value. Also in the carcass there are parts that must be sold for low prices.

There was no announcement of the: subjects or results of the confer- ences, but close friends of the two senators said that both had ad- vised Mr. Daugherty that they de- sired no cabinet preferment, be- lieving that they could perform bet- ter service for President Harding and their party by®remaining in the senate. The~Massachusetts senator made public a statement urging. that course on Senator New. Friends of Senator Lodge said that they be- lieved that his position regarding Senator New applied with equa! force to himself. Many matters of legislation were said to have been discussed by Mr Daugherty with his republican con- fereres. These included Senato!

She pushed the telephone away, turned towards the door and saw Margaret’s sister standing there irresolutely. enough young woman with a mass of loose- ly done brown hair, a somewhat petulant mouht and brown eyes which had a disconcerting way of watching the lips of the person to whom she was speaking. She con- veyed the suggestion of repressed flightiness and she wore clothes which had evidently been bought in one mood and altered in arother.
